Facilitating the Process of Working Through in Psychotherapy delves into a comprehensive exploration and demystification of the concept of working through in dynamic psychotherapy, a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of the therapeutic journey. Just as there are multifaceted factors contributing to the emergence and persistence of symptoms and suffering, a diverse range of interventions is often necessary to navigate through and resolve them effectively. This comprehensive volume spans various topics, including multiple causation, repetition compulsion, and the interplay of polarities in experience. It underscores the significance of offering a corrective emotional experience, recognizing and repairing ruptures in the therapeutic alliance, and fostering a positive treatment outcome. Through verbatim transcripts of the authors' therapy sessions, readers are guided through the factors that drive working through toward lasting change, while also being introduced to theory, research, and practical applications. This book serves as a vital resource for all psychotherapists who are dedicated to enhancing therapeutic effectiveness and fostering their own personal and professional growth.
